How should investors construct portfolios today, when the market forces of yesterday may not apply tomorrow? In a world defined by sticky inflation, structurally higher rates and a weaker correlation between stocks and bonds, investors may be better served by complementing traditional asset allocation with a more intentional approach, focused on differentiated return streams, portfolio construction and manager selection. In our Capital Markets Assumptions, we explore what it means – and what it takes – to diversify portfolios around return drivers, rather than traditional asset classes. We also present an expanded framework including five new private market asset classes, which can help investors evaluate a broader set of differentiated return streams best suited for this environment.

Private equity continues to attract questions around performance, deal activity, and exits. This piece addresses three questions we're hearing most often from investors and advisors. In our view, the answers depend less on market conditions alone, and more on what managers can control: disciplined deployment, differentiated sourcing, operational value creation, and consistency over time.

Our experience continues to reinforce our belief that impact and financial performance go hand-in-hand.

As we enter the second half of 2026, Henry McVey and Lauren Goodwin, CFA reflect on the forces that have shaped markets so far, and what they signal for the road ahead. As investment themes such as AI, productivity, infrastructure, and national security continue to accelerate, other areas of the economy are facing a more challenging backdrop. In this environment, broad market exposure alone may not be enough. Our Mid-Year Outlook In Brief explores why we believe investors should: 🟢 Prioritize quality and durable cash flows. 🟢 Focus on operational value creation over financial engineering. 🟢 Lean into the structural themes reshaping long-term capital allocation. 🟢 Be increasingly selective as dispersion across markets, sectors, and managers continues to widen.

📽️ Large technology companies have an outsized presence in U.S. public markets, with the Magnificent 7 alone representing roughly 1/3 of the S&P 500 market cap. There are fewer opportunities in European markets, where many of the region’s most innovative companies — in space, defense, industrial tech — remain privately held. On June 26, we celebrated the re-IPO of European space champion OHB on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange alongside the founding Fuchs family. Philipp Freise, Co-Head of European PE, joined Bloomberg Television to discuss OHB’s milestone, how we're continuing to find attractive opportunities in European markets, and why access to private markets is critical for investors seeking exposure to the region’s technology and innovation leaders.
